So I'm freaking out and could really really use some advice! ><

I'm an 18 year old girl, in England, and my period is 3 days late, so I'm a little worried, but it's not always super on time, so usually it wouldn't be a big deal, but this feels different. I've been feeling really weird and dizzy since yesterday, as well as light headed and nauseous. My back started hurting Tuesday afternoon, and my tummy has been feeling kinda icky since yesterday, especially when I hold it in. I had quite a bit of discharge on Friday and tiniest amount of spotting today.

I took a pregnancy test on the 1st day of my missed period, and again today, and they have both been negative. I haven't had proper sex with my boyfriend since the 17th, and we're always careful and use a condom, however we 69'd on Wednesday, and didn't use one.

Also, I gave blood for the first time on Wednesday, and felt fine immediately afterwards, however felt dizzy and light headed about half an hour afterwards.

I also started taking natural herbal supplements to help with my metabolism, yesterday.

As well as this, I have been kinda stressed lately, due to awaiting exam results and applying for university, which usually makes my periods quite weird but not normal quite this late.

Basically, I'm freaking out in case I'm pregnant (I'm about to go to university and although I know I would definitely have an abortion, I'd still rather not have to aha), and could really use some advice and reassurance etc right now. Also, I wouldn't ever change my mind about the abortion aha; I'm just too immature and selfish, and I need to put education and a career first, and I don't even know if I want kids ever yet aha.

Thank you in advance for all and any answers. :)

Wait a few days and see if you get your period. If not do another test. I know you say you wouldnt change ypur mind afterman abortion but think very carefully about what your going to do as you may not realise what you have done until its too late.
